I’m not big on trying new things. Ummm, here’s my confession – I lived 40 years without ever having eaten macaroni and cheese.
YES, that’s what I said! My dad didn’t like it and wouldn’t allow it in the house when I was growing up (side note, he also vetoed tuna noodle casserole, but my babysitter really liked it and she brought it to me to try and once I tried it, my whining became louder than Denny Bobainey’s insistence on a tuna-noodle-free house). When I was in college & in my first place, I REBELLED and bought that instant blue box stuff. I was SO excited to make it and be a grown up! I cooked it and added the powdered “cheese”, and the fluorescent orange color combined with the noxious odor grossed me out so much I dumped it down the garbage disposal and never ate a single bite. I lived mac and cheese-less for the next 20 years.
